👉 Our prediction is: Atlético MG to score first

It will be a tough task for Atlético MG to topple Cienciano, who have been a better side overall this season. But with the support of the home crowd will be a huge help to Atlético MG in their bid to cause an upset.

While the odds of an outright win are not great, we recommend betting on Atlético MG to score first as a decent alternative. There is still good value in those odds, and with Atlético MG's attacking talent, they have more than a puncher's chance of paying off that bet.

👉 Our prediction is: Atlético MG to win the 1st half

Atlético MG has been a strong home team overall this season, and the statistics point to them being particularly quick to pounce in the opening 45 minutes. Whether that aggressive mentality is due to the energy of the home crowd or an intentional plan on the part of the manager, it has proven to be very effective.

We foresee that plan paying off once again in their match against Cienciano, so our top tip is for Atlético MG to win the first half.
